Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we planned to use a concept of chiral ion-pairing to construct unique chiral environment around an oxidation catalyst toward the development of selective C-H oxidation transformations. First, iron or manganese-N5 complexes having chiral counter anions such as chiral phosphates and sulfonates were synthesized. Probably due to slow exchange rate of the counter anion, oxidation was retarded considerably. In contrast, CH oxidation proceeded in using a N4 ligand. When alkane with a carboxylic acid as a directing group was employed, the oxidation occurred at the benzylic position in good yield, affording the corresponding lactones with moderate enantioselectivity.
